Using the Dual Mode Pad
(Available on certain models)
The Dual Mode Pad (available on certain models), the small 
square cutout located in front of the keyboard, is sensitive to 
touch. To move the cursor, simply move your finger on the 
Dual Mode Pad in the direction you would like to move the 
cursor:
To move the cursor to the top of the page, push your 
finger forward on the Dual Mode Pad.
To move the cursor to the bottom of the page, drag your 
finger toward yourself.
To move the cursor to the right side of the page, slide 
your finger across the Dual Mode Pad from left to right.
To move it to the left side, slide your finger from right to 
left.
Because the Dual Mode Pad is much smaller than the display 
screen, moving your cursor across the screen often means 
having to move your finger several times across the Dual 
Mode Pad in the desired direction.
You can avoid this by enabling EdgeMotion™. When this 
feature is enabled, the cursor continues moving when your 
finger reaches the edge of the Dual Mode Pad, and stops 
moving when you lift your finger. EdgeMotion™ can be 
enabled or changed in the Mouse Properties dialog box.
Once you have positioned your cursor, you can either click it 
into place by double-tapping the Dual Mode Pad or clicking 
the control buttons.
